The ferkin storm missed Mayport anyway but they still put us out in the middle of it. Lost the ferkin whale boat cause of that snafu.
Then came shore duty. I rode out Andrew at NAS Key West. At least the ground stood still, unlike the ferkin tin can I rode my first hurricane out in.
My sons ship was rated for 45 foot seas, they hit a storm out in the pacific that had 48 footers, he said you had to walk on bulkheads to go down a passage. Lotsa puking going on too he said

Yeah, lotsa pukin. Boondocker prints on the bulkheads. Nice stuff.
They put to sea for a reason during storms. If hurricane force winds hit ships in port they'd be crushed like beer cans and the storm surge would be something also. Thye Saratoga was in for repairs and couldn't get underway during David. They sunk her at the pier.

Yup, he didn't have to worry too much about storms, he was out of Bremerton/Seattle.
Wish I had another pair of Boondockers, great work shoes those were.

This is just the remains of T.S. Gustav, kinda a warm up for when Hanna gets here this afternoon. Barometers is still dropping and it's a tad warmer now. Need gills to breath though.
As a bonus, in the piccy, the lower right corner shows IKE too.
